Prescott Flying Club

Prescott Flying Club Prescott is a local flying club with members from around the Minneapolis/St. Paul Area. Our fleet consists of 4 planes kept at Flemming Field (KSGS).

Club History -
The Prescott Flying Club was established in 1968 at a small grass strip in Prescott, Wisconsin with a single Cessna 150. In the 1970s the club gradually added to the fleet and membership. Being a grass strip, the club typically spent the winter at nearby Fleming Field (SGS) in order to keep the club flying. After several lengthy winters, the club decided to relocate it’s base to Fl

eming Field year-round. By the late 1980s, the city of Prescott had decided to close down the grass strip entirely. Since that time, the club has thrived and expanded while at South St. Paul Fleming Field (SGS), where we currently reside. Out of respect for our heritage we have retained the name of our humble beginnings at the little grass strip in Prescott. The Club Today -
Today our club has 44 members and four airplanes. Our fleet of four aircraft consists of a Cirrus SR20, a retractable gear Piper Arrow, a Piper Archer, and a Piper Warrior. Hourly rates are calculated “wet” (with fuel included) and fuel purchased off-field is credited at a set rate. We charge tach time instead of Hobbs, and for certain types of flying (e.g. pattern work) this can result in considerable savings. Rates are revised regularly to keep up with the actual costs of flying the aircraft. All members in good standing with the club and current to fly our aircraft are covered by the club’s insurance policy.

A huge THANK YOU to the Airlake Aero Flying Club for hosting the semi-homeless Prescott Flying Club for socializing, a great discussion about emergency operations, and yummy eats. We look forward to hosting the next one!

Here’s a follow up to the last post, Warrior 34C, completed, and back in her hangar. The PIREPs so far a very positive, which of COURSE they are! This is one great flying 161, with a very nice panel!

Can you spot the problem?

More importantly, are you ready if it happens to you? You can never practice emergency procedures too much! Grab an instructor and have them surprise you. Maybe its an engine out, maybe it's partial loss of power.

This happened departing during a night XC. All ended well.
